Testing: Cactus and JUnit, Struts TagLibs and JSPs

The Testing: Cactus and JUnit chapter examines pitfalls when building a real-world test set with these tools. It looks at various pitfalls such as 'Unreasonable Assert', 'Console-Based Testing', 'Unfocused Test Method', 'Failure to Isolate Subject' and others. The Struts TagLibs and JSPs chapter looks at common pitfalls such as 'Not Using Struts Tags for Error Messaging', 'Performing Business Logic in JSPs', and others. Examples and solutions are provided for each pitfall.

These two chapters have been excerpted from 'Jakarta Pitalls'(Wiley), by Bill Dudney and Jonathan Lehr.
